He who pronounces anything to he impossible outside of the field of pure mathematics, is wanting in prudence. Fbancois A baqo. A learned pedant who laughs at the possible comes very near being an idiot. To purposely shun a fact, and turn ones back upon it with a supercilums smile, is to bankrupt Truth. Victor Hugo. Science is under bonds, by the eternal principles of honor, to look fearlessly in the face every problem thai is presented to her. Sib William Thompson.
